2. I think it best Kaepernick use a better term than 'lynching' then. 'Shooting' would be much more informative and accurate.

"Don't say that thing, say the other thing."

 

Are you catching on yet?

To help KlaMarine out here is the definition of what lynching include

What does lynching include?

Lynching is the illegal killing of a person under the pretext of service to justice, race, or tradition. Though it often refers to hanging, the word became a generic term for any form of execution without due process of law.
Guessing by that definition, Kap was using it correctly, it's just that KlaMarine was ignorant of the meaning.  Ignorance is probably one of the biggest cause of misunderstandings and it will always be the main source of why people never understand an issue because they do not take the time to want to understand.
